How do I find out what my PW is on my Mac or at least how to reset it?

I reset my password for internet site but i must have a different pw on my Mac, it will not let me do updates without it*  The PW hint in the sign in screen is not working.  How do I find out what my PW is on my Mac or at least how to reset it?

thanks,

Sounds like you want your administrative password on the Mac so can install? For starters, you'll want to ask in a Mac forum. I know you used to be able to reset it using the install disk but haven't tried that for years.
